It looks pretty sharp. I just need to read the HTML file so I can figure out what to do  I would offer one suggestion, though. You might consider making the dialogs using the GameAPI instead of standard windows forms. It just sort of throws off the feel of the game when you go from a cool looking game screen to plain old windows dialog screen. Just a thought.

Just had a few minutes today playing, experienced one crash  and wanted to give you a "please go on!" Strategy games of this kind are rather hard to find for the PocketPC... There is a crack, a crack in everything. That's how the light gets in. (L. Cohen) | ||

But again, GameAPI dialogs would definitaly look more polished. Regards, Alain Deschenes President and programmer ArianeSoft Inc. (http://www.arianesoft.ca) | ||
